Default displays not detected in ubuntu 22.10 kernel 5.9.0-23

I've got a Dell Latitude 5521 running Ubuntu 22.10. It's connected to a Wavelink USB3 port replicator which is driving 2 external monitors via HDMI.

When I boot into the latest kernel (5.19.0-23), it cannot see the 2 external monitors.

BUT... when I boot into kernel 5.19.0-15, the 2 monitors are there no problem.

Per the instructions here (https://www.displaylink.org/forum/sh...ad.php?p=94453) I've
  • removed displaylink
  • rebooted
  • removed evdi 1.11
  • removed evdi 1.12
  • re-installed linux headers
  • re-installed displaylink
,

...and rebooted again just for good measure. No joy.

Default UPDATE: less joy than before

UPDATE:
I removed everything, re-installed, and now the displays are dark in both kernels.

Yay for consistency, I guess?

Still, I really REALLY would like to get my other monitors working.

Default UPDATE: fixed - disabling secure boot was the key

Welp, I went back into BIOS to double-check secure boot and sure enough it was on, and sure enough disabling it immediately allowed the external monitors to work.

So for future generations, here's a potential answer. Good luck!
